HER LITTLE NOTE.

Here is her dainty little note
The writing clear and fine.
Upon each word fairly dote,
And often with thrill quote,
The ending-"Ever thine"
Her notes were like those of bird;
Each sentence seemed divine
But with what joy my pulses stirred
When had read the closing word
And came to Ever thine"
With what fond and tender touch
She would these words combine!
Most surely there were never such
Sweet words combined which meant so much
As these two-"Ever thine"
And sometimes when she wrote these two,
The first she'd underline,
To make me sure that she'd be true;
And well Iknow she meant it too,
When she signed "Euer thine"
For when in after years prayed
This maiden to be mine,
Within my own her hand she laid
And oh, what joy those words conveyed:
She said: I'm ever thine!"

STAND TO YOUR GUMS.

That Ireland is now on the eve Of a
crisis the like Of which has never before
transpired in her history admits of no
doubt. How this is to be faced the
circumstances as they occur can only
determine. One thing is quite evident,
that at no time in the past; has the SYM
pathy and aid Of the Irish people in this
country been required so much as it is
now. The battle is inevitable. We
have right on our side, but unfor5un-
ately the aggressors have might Oh
theirs. On the principle that in union
there is strength it behooves al! those
who take an interest in the national
movement in Ireland to assist in per-
fecting the organization Of the League
in America. A blow will have to be
struck before long, and it is absolutely
necessary that it should be q decisive
one. This can only be achieved by per
feet organization.

the poor tenants the over-payment OF

The statement of the Irish case, COM

a revelation to the Tories who are wont
to look upon the demand for self-gov-
eminent as something that is only
confined to a certain class of the Irish
people in Ireland and the United
States. 1t may serve as q mirror in
which the Tories can see themselves as

JOHN MORLEY ON THE SITUATION

John Morley is the uncompromising
foe Of British misrule in Ireland. His
expose of the aim and object Of land
lordism in Ireland, in the House Of Com
mons last Tuesday night, was clever in
The extreme. He said chat Irish land
lords combined habits of extravaganza.
in emulation Of TIM richer landlords Of
England. with resorting to q system of
rack-Ient. No matter how hard the
tenants might strive TO meet their
rents,' said MI Morley, "this wratched
landlord system crushed them. The CO.
ercjon proposals of the Government ap-
peared to be based upon the idea that
the people Of Ireland were INDECENT and
dishonest. But those who knew them
had ii different conception Of their char
acter. They believed them to be honest,
hardworking and truthful He could only
regard the bill as a measure designed to
enable landlords TO exact exorbitant
rents, throwing the law on the side of
the rich, removing all coerciye or pro-
tectiye power which tenants derived
from combining and putting coercion
upon the unfortunate tenants. He was
less anxious to secure rents for some
hard landlords than to secure just
treatment for these good and honest
working people. Some landlords prac~
ticed plan OF campaign Of their own
more im.uoral and nore deserving OF
being called q swindie than was the
plan Of the tenants. Some land agents
attempted to coarce the tenants into
buying under the Ashi,urne act. die
Eating the terms OF purchase and threat
ening to evict unless the tenant con-
scented. The Government demand ur-
gency for bill giving men power to
force tenants to pay unreasonable rent
or to purchase at an unreasonable
price. Behind this bill lay a proposal
that the British taxpayer be security if
the coercion OF tenants failed to satisfy
the lands. It was Irish history over
again-moral wrongs pressing upon a
suffering people without legal remedy );

and cheated man is III this meeting to-
night. Here is another casa case
which came before the land court in
Derry. There is q piece Of ground, not

mer, which he resolved he would re-
claim. This ground was III terrible
condition. 1t was Doggy, marshy, wet
and slnshy. 1t was a fearful pit and a
miIy clay. 1t was SO bad that the
owner of this morass had to pay herd
boy to keep his cattle from entering it
lest they should be drowned and when
any of the cattle escaped the vigilance
of the herd. and wandered into it, i'm
mediately a great cry was raised for
help which brought the neighbors from
all quarters with. ropes and planks to
the assistance Of the poor beast, which,
at the risk Of their own lives, they saved
from death by immersion. Well, sir,
this morass was reclaimed by honest

money, and surely the reclaimer had
right to the result of his toll and ex-
penditure. But was he SO rewarded {?
No; for when the morass was reclaimed
the landlord charged the tenant 32s. Sd.
an acre for it. These cases, contend,
are cases of robbery of labor" How
long would one of our Minnesota far
mers submit to terms like those to which
the Irish tenant farmers are forced to
acquiesce. There the poor people are
unable to avoid the curse of this iniqui-
tous landlord system. Ii is legalized
robbery, and the majority OF the people
are kept so poor thatit is impossible for
them to ilnmlgrate to a more congeniai

AN OPEN LETTER

Archbishop Lynch Of Toronto has al
| ways manifested q strong interest in
the Irish race both at horne and abroad.
To His Grace can be attributed in a
great measure the fact that Irish Catho-
lies in Canada enjoy more freedom than
they do in any other part OF the Queens
dominions. But it is not in this regard
alone that His Grace's services have
proved invaluable; in the cause Of edu~
cation Canada will for years to come be
indebted to Archbishop Lynch.
A word from the Archbishop goes q
long distance in any matter, and for
this reason too much Importance can
not be attached to the letter which he
has recently addressed t. Lord Ran
dolph Churchill. The sentiments ex-
pressed in the letter it may DO assumed
represent the feelings OF the majority
in Canada on the all-absorbing Home
Rule question. His Grace begins by
reminding Lord Randolph Of the visit
that he paid the Duchess of Marlbor-
ough some years ago while that lady was
so nobly exerting herself in behalf OF the
starving Irish peasantry, and draws at
attention to the fact that at that time he
predicted brilliant. future for the
young lord His Grace then begs Lord
Randolph to make a special study of
the Irish question, and continues thus !:
''Your lorlship cannot but feel the
disgraceful contradiction involved in
the present attitude of the British Par
lament toward Ireland, and no wonder
you are away from it at present. On
the one hand, admitting the injustice
of the landlords exactions and the utter
inability of the tenants to meet them
lin consequence Of the low prices of
produce) the British House passed a
law appointing commission to regu-
late rents, which results in their being
reduced in many instances to one-half
or one-third of their former amount.
On the other hand, the machinery Of
that tribunal being SO slow that 50
years would scarcely suffice for the
hearing Of all the cases. the landlords
are availing themselves of this delay
and are pushing evictions by whole
sale and the British Parliament stulti-
Tying itself. prostitutes the power of
the law, which should be sacred, by
granting the aid OF police and soldiery
to assist sheriffs and bailiffs in evicting
thousands of unfortunate people, young
and old, liz the most inclement season
of the year, amid the screams and cries
of starving women and children and
the curses of enraged men thus help
